Question 3

Half block between a street or ave.

Question 4

Courts are sometimes half way between what?

Answer 4

Usually but not always between a Place and either a street or ave.

Or they may be a quarter to three quarters from the next street or ave.

Question 5

Tell me the way to tell if an place or court runs east/west like a street or north/south like an ave.

Answer 5

If running east/west like a street the place or court will have the compass heading before the name or number of the place or court.

So E Walnut Pl runs parallel to streets.
Also,
S Cedar Pl runs parallel to streets.

Both run east/west. The S is in reference to Cedar being south of some main or central street that might not be known.

Question 6

Do blvd and roads have rules governing if they go east/west n/s?

Answer 6

No, they can wind and go whatever direction. And they can wind and change.

Places do have rules: either east/west or n/s depending on if it looks like
SW Third
Or
Third SW

If the SW is before it runs parallel to street
If the SW is after it runs parallel to an ave.
